Ночь сотни звёзд
Self
Самая блестящая, дорогая и утомительная видеосъемка в истории телевидения состоялась в пятницу, 19 февраля 1982 года, в нью-йоркском Radio City Music Hall. Мероприятие, за которое покупатели билетов платили до 1000 долларов за место (без учета налогов как взнос в Фонд актеров), было объявлено «Ночь сотни звёзд», но на самом деле в нем приняли участие около 230 звезд. И большая часть аудитории из 5800 человек заранее не подозревала, что они платят за просмотр телевизионной записи, сопровождающейся долгим ожиданием смены декораций и костюмов, перемоткой ленты и тому подобным. Исполнительный продюсер Александр Коэн подсчитал, что 5800 мест в Radio City Music Hall были распроданы по цене от 25 до 1000 долларов. Производство самого шоу стоило около 4 миллионов долларов, и ожидалось, что оно принесет около 2 миллионов долларов за новое дополнение к дому престарелых Актерского фонда в Энглвуде, штат Нью-Джерси. Считается, что ABC заплатила более 5 миллионов долларов за телевизионные права.

Прощай, Колумбус
Ben Patimkin
Экранизация одноименной повести американского писателя Филипа Рота, за которую (вместе с еще 5 рассказами, вошедшими в книгу) автор получил Национальную книжную премию в 1960 году, когда ему было всего 26 лет. Каждое из произведений посвящено различным жизненным проблемам второго и третьего поколения ассимилировавшихся американских евреев. Как и более известный (возможно, скандально) российскому читателю роман "Случай портного" / "Portnoy’s Complaint " (1969, рус. перев. 2001) книга посвящена рефлексиям еврейского юноши над невозможностью обрести счастье в силу слишком еврейского воспитания... В данном случае - избранницы. Она - типичная еврейско-американская принцесса, ее родители, сами добившиеся благосостояния тяжелым трудом, ни в чем ей не отказывают, поскольку она их никогда не разочаровывала.
